Just Curious On The Differences In School Lenth

[Pows]

I'm new here and my name is of course Lori. I was just curious about the different length of the massage courses from what I am reading here. Mine was only about 10 months long. Tons of stuff cramed in there but it seemed not enough time spent on the different mods. Our weeks were about 20 hours to include class time and lab time. Most of what I learned we learned from each other and different techniques we had seen or read (self taught). This was on top of what we were taught in the actual curriculum. So I was wondering how long your course was and how much time was spent on each section. Say skeletal, muscular, integumentary etc. My total hours at graduation were 814 of which 180 was extenship.

Welcome Lori!

The school I attended was a year long, but you had the option of going for a year and a half if you wanted to go part time, and 600 hours of class time by the time of graduation. That included hands on class, all lectures, clinic time, event hours and elective hours. I know there is another thread out there that is more descriptive of hours, but I couldn't find it. :? Maybe someone else is a little better at it than I am? :roll:
